[Verse 1]
D C D
Well I don’t know if you’ve noticed but lately it seems to me
D C D
Almost as if things are not running exactly the way they ought to be
D C D
It’s almost as if the falcon can hear the falconer just fine
D C D
And the falconer’s telling the falcon to leave most of us to die
D C D
Before you start to worrying, scratching at your skin all night
D N.C
Remember, when DD gets her donkey, everything will be alright
[Chorus 1]
D C D
When DD gets her donkey, everything will be alright
D C D
When DD gets her donkey, everything will be alright, alright
D C D
D C D
[Verse 2]
D C D
Now there’s other people who have noticed that things are not quite right too
D C D
These people, they are doing almost everything that they can do
D C D
Some people are hoping for a real good revolution
D C D
Other people are just hoping to die and go to Heaven
D C D
Revolutionaries in Heaven eat at Schwartz’s and fuck all night
D N.C.
And when DD gets her donkey, everything will be alright
[Chorus 2]
D C D
When DD gets her donkey, everything will be alright
D C D
When DD gets her donkey, everything will be alright
D C D
The don (don!), don (don!), donkey, making everything alright
D C D
The don (don!), don (don!), donkey, making everything alright, alright!

[Verse 3]
D C D
Donkey will protect the chickens from the predators of this land
D C D
Polar bears shall all return to shake the donkey’s hand
D C D
The donkey will kick and bray
D
The donkey will kick and bray
D C D
The donkey will kick and bray and the children will evolve
D C D
Into donkey-human creatures full of intelligence and love
D C D
Humanity shall awaken from its long, idiotic night
D N.C.
Because when DD gets her donkey, everything will be alright
[Chorus 3]
D C D
When DD gets her donkey, everything will be alright
D C D
When DD gets her donkey, everything will be alright
D C D
D C D
[Verse 4]
D C D
So get yourself a drink and go and dance with a cutie
D C D
Luxuriate in the terror of the violin’s risky beauty
D C D
And when it’s time to pass the hat at the end of the night
D N.C
Remember, when DD gets her donkey, everything will be alright
[Chorus 4]
D C D
When DD gets her donkey, everything will be alright
D C D
When DD gets her donkey, everything will be alright
[Outro]
D C D
The donkey, that’s the fundamental key
D C D
To making everything turn out right
